[QUOTE="kavarro95, post: 6852097, member: 6832281"] Corzaphir Wyldmourne was the third born of 4 siblings, all 3 of which favoring their mother being half-elven, 1 of those also a brother. As the only one favoring their father, he always felt out of place. His parents a half-orc soldier and a half-elven cleric met under serendipitous circumstances ,on the battlefield ,as his mother had just saved his father's life by amputating his arm at the elbow and mending the wound which fate had provided in the poisoned blade of an orc warlord. They spent many a happy year together as they had planned to make a grand family, until the fateful day the now grown son of that particular warlord and his army re-entered their lives. The entire village was razed. Those who were not killed were enslaved , including Corzaphir's entire family. His father was held for a long time and eventually killed due to injuries inflicted by his many torturers. His sisters and mother were held for more insidious purposes and after a while were murdered as they were no longer "usable". As for his brother and himself, they were forced into many years of hard labor, his younger brother was eventually moved to different region, so he relentlessly follows rumours of large orc slave camps all around the continent and is yet to find him. A few more years went by, and one day while he was in the process of a cavern breach so the warlord could raid a dwarven city,they were ambushed by said dwarves. After years of waiting ,his chance of finally escaping presented itself. With a rage born of years of ritual scarification and torturing he exploded into action and grabbing the nearest orc slaver by the ankles began bashing every single orc face he saw into pulp and shards of bone. A dwarven sergeant came into the tunnel and as he saw what this slave had done to the innumerable orc bodies while only wielding a broken orc as a hammer of death, yelled in amazement "Urk grund!". He introduced the half-orc as such, which is where Corzaphir earned his nickname ,which translated means "orc hammer". He spent the next few years wandering from region to region helping rebuild the settlements that were left in ruins by his captors and eventually found his calling from 2 gods, St. Cuthbert and Kord, and swore a paladin's oath of vengeance on all Gruumsh worshipping orcs. Well opinions? [/QUOTE]
